Doctor Who

Doctor Who is a British science fiction television programme produced by the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC).

The programme depicts the adventures of a mysterious and eccentric humanoid alien known as the Doctor who travels through time and space in his spacecraft, the TARDIS (an acronym for Time And Relative Dimensions In Space), which normally appears from the exterior to be a blue 1950s British police box. With his companions, he explores time and space, faces a variety of foes and rights wrongs.

One of the best shows out there. Period. Yes it has cheesy effects and ridiculous monsters. But it also has some of the scariest villains you'll ever have nightmares about. The best supporting cast, great storylines. And a doctor that gets reinvented every few years and still somehow manages to make you fall in love with him. If you are a fan of fantasy/psyfi and you are not watching this show then you need to get yourself checked out.

Doctor Who - 241 - The Time of the Doctor

A synopsis released on the BBC website read: "Orbiting a quiet
backwater planet, the massed forces of the universe's deadliest species
gather, drawn to a mysterious message that echoes out to the stars.
Amongst them, the Doctor. Rescuing Clara from a family Christmas dinner,
the Time Lord and his best friend must learn what this enigmatic signal
means for his own fate and that of the universe."
As revealed in the first trailer, Tasha Lem, someone from the Doctor's past, stands with what looks like the Church and proclaims "The Siege of
Trenzalore is now begun!" This refers to the prophecy, said by the
character Dorium Maldovar, stating that on the fields of Trenzalore at
the fall of the Eleventh, the Silence will fall when the oldest question
in the universe, "Doctor who?", is asked.
